Rather secluded and completely empty when I went there at around 6pm mid August Friday evening. I believe there are 2 areas for a small picnic and grill as well. Make your way up the wooden walkway and in a minute you get to the ocean, beach wide open for you after taking the steps down. There are shells everywhere washed up on shore and tiny little crabs burying into the sand. Only been there once but the waves were rather large that day, not good for kids. Could be different on other days, but were far stronger than at the Pier on emerald Isle.

There is a grove of Live Oak here that are gorgeous. Again - even if you are not going to the beach it is worth it to stop and see the trees. There is plenty of parking here and the services are kept up. The place is kept neat and clean. There are bathrooms here as well. I enjoy the outdoor showers as we can get showered off and clean off our equipment after coming in from the ocean before getting back into the car. The walk to the ocean is a dream across a well built and properly maintained wooden walkway. It cuts directly through myrtle and yaupon stands so you can see inside that incredibly interesting biome. It is a unique and wonderful experience for birdwatchers and artists. The walkway continues to rise above the dunes and the view of how a barrier looks in pristine state is received. Wonderful! The walkway continues down to the beach. There are stairs that lead down to the shore. Though it is difficult getting a wheelchair down there is a small deck at the top where, with umbrellas or other means, the view and breezes could be enjoyed. The beach itself is a great place to visit. The waters are clear. There is no lifeguard here so all caution should be taken. Riptides and occasional sharks occur here. At high tide the two 'shelves' that are close in will be obscured, so be careful. During turtle breeding season there may be nests near this location. I love to observe them even if I am not there during hatching. Shorebirds sometimes abound and porpoises, dolphins and even whales may be seen!

He's in his element anytime he's heading offshore. He made the decision to move to the area and never looked back. He caters to the hard core angler wanting to fish offshore without breaking the bank! He enjoys taking families inshore fishing, creating memories to last a lifetime, as their child catches their first fish. Hook, Line and Sandbar Charters also offers scenic, family friendly ECO tours. There's nothing like watching your child search for a dolphin pod swimming in the beautiful waters off the NC Crystal Coast. Your child can be a lookout for wild horses roaming an island or shelling on Shackleford Banks. A Sunset Cruise is a relaxing way to end the day. Cruise to Cape Lookout National Seashore to see the lighthouse up close. Book a tour to cruise the ICW, Bogue Sound or the local waterfronts in Beaufort, Morehead City or Swansboro NC.

All in all a great attraction on Emerald Isle and definitely worth a visit.

There were a plethora of fishermen and fisherwomen. I was astounded by how many catches everyone got, in the hour I spent on the pier. Many different types of fish were caught using different lures, fishing rods, and homemade contraptions. There was a shop, where I paid my entry fee, that had fresh blood worms, fishing tackle, t-shirts, and anything else you needed to be great. The view was amazing and humbling. I think I started to get a little sea sick because the pier was rocking as the waves hit it The further I walked to the end of the pier, I said a little prayer that my knees/legs wouldn't give out on me or I wouldn't lose my breakfast, in front of all these people I will be back and enjoyed every moment!
